Crafting an all-time greatest Champions League XI is immensely difficult, so it’s no surprise that AI Tool ChatGPT tried their hands at it. FourFourTwo challenged the AI to come up with the best Champions League XI and ChatGPT did not disappoint.
ChatGPT’s selection was based on a combination of individual skill, team success, and tactical knowhow. The XI includes some of the greatest Champions League players of all time, including Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, and legendary Italian goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.
The standout inclusion may be Cafu who has become known for his international exploits. Cafu’s Champions League record isn’t the most impressive, but ChatGPT has recognized his past successes in other competitions. Sergio Ramos and Paolo Maldini form a perfectly balanced defensive pair of Champions League stalwarts, while Philipp Lahm’s 112 Champions League appearances add solidity on the left.
The midfield takes shape in the form of Andres Iniesta, Xavi and Zinedine Zidane. This trio enhances the team hugely and stands out among the players that have missed out.
On the wings, it’s no surprise that Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi make the cut. Between them, they boast 140 Champions League goals and are undoubtedly two of the best to ever grace the competition. Finally, the lone striker spot is taken by the Brazilian Ronaldo, who, despite never winning the Champions League, boasts a remarkable record in the competition with 67 goals in the competition.
ChatGPT’s Champions League line-up makes for an impressive XI and is surely competitive enough for a European night under the lights. Some of football’s greatest players have missed out, proving how competitive the team is.
